                      Giraffes

  • The giraffe is the tallest mammal in the world, with even newborn babies being taller than most humans.
  • Baby Giraffes can stand within half an hour and after only 10 hours can actually run next to their family.
  • Giraffes spend most of their lives standing up; they sometimes sleep and have babies standing up.
  • Giraffes only spend 10 minutes and 2 hours asleep per day. They have one of the shortest sleep requirements of any mammal.
  • Young giraffes hang out in nursery groups until they are around 5 months old, sleeping eating and playing together while their mothers forage in the distance.
  • Giraffes are sociable, peaceful animals which rarely fight. Males do perform a behaviour called ‘necking’ where they will hit necks; however these encounters rarely last more than a couple of minutes and seldom result in injury.
  • Just like snowflakes and human fingerprints, no two giraffes have the same spot pattern.
  • Even giraffes tongues are big. They are up to 45cm long and have adapted  to allow giraffes to eat tall leaves on trees that other animals would avoid, such as acacias which are very thorny.
  • In New Age religion the giraffe is a symbol for intuition and flexibility.
The name Giraffe Camelopardalis means ‘one who walks quickly, a camel marked like a leopard’.

beep beep beep beeep! I just woke up to the sound of my engine ohh no we must be out of fuel. 1 minute has passed and then I heard a big boom. we just hit some planet of a sort. I shouted out get up then I heard a groan that must be the other person I brought with me. Introducing summer and mackenzie and we are on a trip to planet 9. Me Summer and Kenzie. We are at a big rock and we are setting up camp.When I spotted something in the remains of the ship. I just remembered that i had left some cake in the unbreakable case. 10 minutes later I hear a scream back from camp I start running back to camp to see that a alien has broken into camp then they look at me and said do you know how to build “houses”. Because “we” need one to live in a house and then I came up with the most craziest idea ever. For some reason I couldn't say no so I grabbed my ipad and made houses on a game named minecraft. and then hooked it up to the electoral guy who made the houses become real and then we had a whole town for everyone to live in and in a few years we had settled right in and then we found out that this was the town for me and all of my friends. the net day we had a party with superheroes and monsters from other planets and I think that me and all of my friends made  new friends and then we all went home and had a good sleep. in the morning we all had a good breakfast and a new one to. I like trying new things.
